Please tell me of the 3 skrunkies 🙏🙏

Or even just one of 'em

🥺 <- wishes to hear about them (please)

YOU DONT KNOW HOW MUCH THIS MEANS TO ME!!

Gonna write a short summary for each of em' bc I'll go into a full rant otherwise. So, the 3 skrunkies are called Downfall, MotorRaid, A-Strike (still working on names, but I like downfall the most)

Pre-war, Downfall's purpose on Cybertron was to be a military weapon. Her original alt-mode was a sniper rifle, she attended training and was usually wielded by one of her closer troop members. When the war first began, she easily sided with the Decepticons.

Early on became a bounty hunter, capturing/killing Autobots for payments. Rarely ever went after her own faction, but a good payment is a good payment...With this payment, she went under several modifications. The most prominent is her right arm which was modified to turn into a sniper rifle, that way she can actually fight without transforming. Second, for practicality, she replaced her right optic with a sniper scope as well (she totally didn't lose her eye)

During her time as a bounty hunter, she teamed up with A-Strike and MotorRaid (although very begrudgingly) to form their own little group. It didn't go too well, so that didn't last long. They willingly joined the Decepticons under Megatrons command, Downfall becomes a loyal sniper. In whatever continuity, whenever she travels to Earth, she chooses a jet mode (ATN - 51) I'd like to think that her overall personality is like...TFA Prowl except more aggressive, less curious, more impulsive :D

next up is...MotorRaid

Raid was originally a junk-loader on Cybertron. He brought and took back materials and junk and other construction bots did the rest of the work. He picked out what did and what didn't get transported to planet Junkion. With this job, he found out he had a thing for collecting small trinkets. Collecting and hoarding them. Despite having literal massive hands he somehow can pick out small gears and knows where everything is in junk piles.

Not to mention he has a thing for organizing, expect to find him in a junkyard organizing literal garbage by size and color

To be honest? He didn't hate his job, he just disliked how bots of his caste were treated. He also quickly became a Megatron supporter.

Upon going to The Pits more often, perhaps he also found out he had a thing for participating in fights and brawls...bro had a violence awakening

Once teamed up with the other two bots, he took the role of being a "look-out" and also was in charge of taking care of the bigger bots. He's not quiet/sneaky like Downfall or clever like A-Strike, but he's built like a cybertronian bodybuilder with suppressed anger issues, man

He's a pretty quiet bot actually, looks more intimidating than his actual personality. More prone to give mercy than any of the rest

Next up is A-Strike

Also took part in military training as an Aviation Maintenance Officer. His alt mode is like...a massive transport aircraft. Literally, no one liked working with him because bro is too strict and a perfectionist but he also did his job right sooo

Doesn't know how to take accountability, only reason he sided with the Decepticons was because he blamed the upper castes (no one likes me...it must be the higher-ups fault >:( ) Here he learned he can't boss everyone around or else he's gonna get beat up (he got beat up)

Joined with Downfall and Raid because they killed a bot he didn't like, thought they had similar mindsets and didn't realize they were literally bounty hunters. Either way, he became somewhat like a strategist to them since "their ideas weren't good enough" and somehow he was also good at that

Didn't end up actually joining Megatron's ranks when the other two did, he just kinda did his own thing afterward

tbh I still need a complete backstory for him so this might change :D
